After finishing a painstaking restoration of this 1959 Dodge one can think: what next? The colleagues of the restorer of this Dodge solved the problem proposing him a bet: he had to create an exact replica in 1/10 scale in steel to demonstrate his skills. As if he not yet had given proof with the beautiful restoration of the real car, he created in few months the accurate model car seen in photo 2. Even the smallest detail was reproduced with care, and yes also the interior and dashboard were faithfully elaborated with fabrics (photo 3). The bet was easily won by the courageous builder, and after that he created yet another model. In this case the Bugatti 57 SC of photo 5. The bet has created a new hobby.
